merge PR #4222: fix(title): preserve ALL-CAPS acronyms in auto-generated session titles (@roboomp)

 - Fixed interrupted speech audio by ensuring segments queue and drain in order
 - Fixed speech vocalization starting only after the entire reply was synthesized: ONNX inference blocks the TTS worker's event loop, so per-segment IPC audio chunks queued unflushed and arrived in one burst. Streaming sends now drain the IPC channel before the next segment's inference, cutting time-to-first-audio to ~1.5s regardless of reply length.
 - Fixed an unhandled `EPIPE: broken pipe, write` rejection at the end of speech playback: the streaming player's `stop()` raced an un-awaited `FileSink.end()` against the backend SIGKILL, and mid-session writes never awaited the flush. Writes now await the flush (so a dead backend is detected and the chunk replays on the next candidate or the per-file path) and `stop()` swallows the expected teardown rejection.
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed ALL-CAPS acronyms (e.g. `CNPG`, `ETL`, `JWT`) being lowered to title case in auto-generated session titles. `reconcileTitleCasing` (`packages/coding-agent/src/tiny/text.ts`) now maps ALL-CAPS source tokens into an `acronyms` table and restores them when the model produces a title-cased artifact (`Cnpg`), while still declining restoration on shouty input (`FIX the BUG NOW`, `ALL ERROR HANDLING`) via a consecutive-ALL-CAPS heuristic. Title prompts also instruct the model to preserve ALL-CAPS acronyms verbatim. ([#4220](https://github.com/can1357/oh-my-pi/issues/4220))
